The reason for systemd not making it into f14 was that it entered the game 
rather late and that there are a few issues left to deal with that people 
already pledged to work on (for bug numbers see some other recent mails on 
this list on this topic). Nevertheless people felt uncomfortable to commit 
to this in the end.
Given that there is now a 6 month time horizon for the next release I don't 
see why you are already painting a doomsday scenario that would delay 
systemd further. If that happens then you should complain then and there. 
It's not useful to accuse people of dealing in "hypothetical bugs 
scenarios" and then resort to hypotheticals yourself.

Since there isn't much of an overlap between the features and systemd 
already seems to be in great shape I don't see the problem here.
